Building and running

With Docker

You must have Docker installed.

1. Clone the repo.
2. Run build.sh, it will build the docker image for you and will tag it avamon-bot.
3. Copy the default config from ./frontend/telegrambot/bin/avamon-bot/config.default.toml and edit it however you like. Don't forget to specify the bot token. Set redis host to redis.
4. Create docker-compose.yml with these contents:

version: '3'
services:
  bot:
    image: avamon-bot
    links:
    - redis
    volumes:
    - ./config.toml:/var/avamon-bot/config.toml:ro
  redis:
    image: redis

1. Run with docker-compose up.

If you want to persist the sqlite3 database, edit the path of the db file in the config (database.name key), then mount it as docker volume.

With Go compiler.

1. Build and install it: go get github.com/yamnikov-oleg/avamon-bot/frontend/bin/avamon-bot
2. Copy and edit the config file at ./frontend/avamon-bot/config.default.toml. Don't forget to specify the bot token. Make sure you have Redis running on localhost.
